RED-SKIN CHIEF IS CITY SLICKER
Hollywood Picks 'Indian'
Right Out of Times Square
By PATRICIA CLARY
Hollywood (U.R) There are plenty of Indians hooting around
away out west here. But for a movie Indian, they pick a New
Yorker who's never been off the Times Square Reservation.
"Until I began playing Indians in movies," Joe Vitale said, "I'd
never been outside a Broadway cigar store."
Vitale was a full dress cityf-
slicker from the Toots Shor te
pee until Bob Hope called him
westward ho! on the heap-big
Chief. He played a redskin in
"The Paleface" and made such a
good one that Hope asked him
to repeat in his current Para
mount western, "Fancy Pants."
"Hope told me they'd love me
at the Lambs club," Vitale
grunted, waggling his feather
headdress. "I'm sure my perfor
mance will turn even the red
dest redman's face red.
"Please don't scalp me, fel
lows. It's all done for laughs."
It took two days, braids, moc
casins, beads, red paint and 10
costume changes to change Vi
tale from a native of Manhattan
to a native of the tepee.
"And the moccasins hurt my
feet," he added. "How could the
Indians stand these things?"
Vitale, who plays a Taos In
dian, met an Apache Indian
tending horses when "Fancy
Pants" ws on location. The Ap
ache, wishing to be friendly ad
dressed Vitale in an Indian
tongue.
- "I kept saying 'how',"Vitale
aid. "The Indian gave up in dis
gust. When I heard he was on
the level, I apologized and told
him I was an ersatz Indian.
" 'Well, what do you know!'
the Apache said. You wouldn't
expect an Apache to say that."
As soon as he finishes chasing
settlers in covered wagons, Vi
tale is hopping a fast train back
to Broadway, where he used to
play in "Hold On to Your Hats'
and "I'd Rather Be Right."
"I hope my friends will soon
forget about calling me 'Run
ning Water," he added. "After
the first one thousand times, it
ain't funny."
CIO Meet in Bend
Bend, Oct. 6 OP) The execu
tive board of the Oregon CIO
council convened today to pre
pare for the two-day state con
vention meeting here Friday and
Saturday. Neil Griffin, presid
ing officer of the board, said
about 200 delegates were due
tomorrow. They will repre
sent 68 affiliated unions and
eight boards and councils.
Only Amateurs Get 'Mike
Fright'? Ho, Stars Do, Too
Hollywood W.) Just like the high school speaker or the lady
who addresses her club, movie stars get "mike fright," too.
Nervousness is such a problem with actors that most of them
develop a stunt to quiet them before they go into scenes or start
radio shows.
Dick Powell and Jimmy
Stewart inflict long rehearsals
on themselves. When they ap
pear on the Lux Radio Theater.
even alter ine aress rmnrsai
over, they still stay in their
corner, reading tneir lines over
and over, until it's time to go
on.
Mickey Rooney who grew up
in show business, sun nas nis
moments of insecurity, believe
it or not. He plays the piano or
drums to keep his mind occupied.
Barbara Stanwyck, Joan
Crawford and Claudette Col
bert twist nervously when they
get before a mike. Miss Craw
ford takes her shoes off uncon
sciously. Miss Stanwyck slips in
and out of them while she talks
Paul Muni plays the violin
right up to broadcast time. Bctte
Davis and Gary Cooper chain
smoke, while William Powell
and Don Ameche gulp soothing
drafts of milk. Gale Storms
knits argyle socks and Elyse
Knox immerses herself in a
novel.
The Lux Theater, which has
hosted so many stars in Its 15
years, has a device of its own to
calm their microphone nerves.
It's a four-foot high metal stand
on the stage directly under the
microphone. (Producer William
Keighley suspends the mike
from the ceiling so nobody'll
hug it for support.)
The metal stand, called "Os
car." has smooth tubular f
braces, and every star to ap .r
on the show has gripped, kicked
or stood on them.
"It helps them to have some
thing to brace themselves with,"
Keighley explained.
But even "Oscar" isn't enough
for some stars. Two actors
James Mason and Ann Blyth
went to every rehearsal of the
show for two weeks before they
were to appear. Seeing other
people live through the ordeal
seemed to give them confidence.
Norsemen made a soup, full
of vitamin C it was later found
with a base of rose haws.
